This week I find myself in Winnipeg. Besides the cold and horizontal winds, its quite nice (sarcasm).
I am here for a week, not a big deal, however, tomorrow is my son's 5th birthday.
That in itself is not a problem, we had a big party on the weekend for him and I will of course call tomorrow.
What is significant is the anxious tick of the time clock.
He turns 5, this is just another reminder, how fast time goes by and reminds me how imperative it is not to squander the years I have left. (I am not trying to be weird and/or awkward it just seems we wait until its almost too late to be the person we really want to be).
You may say this is undue stress and anxiety to think like this, however, its like a small fire burning inside... to catch up,accomplish goals, make a difference, do right by others and set a good example.
Too often it seems, people I know or know of, loose their health, their lust for life or life itself far too early. I figure you have to make hay while the sun shines and you can't slow down.
I'm putting this fire out with gasoline.
